With deep sub-micron technology, chip designers are expected to create System-On-Chip (SOC) solutions by connecting different Intellectual Property (IP) blocks using efficient and reliable ...

Before there was a mainstream open standard Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) like RISC-V, a computer processor's software/hardware interface was generally defined by processor architects. The ...

HSI is a critical capability that now has the full attention of the Accellera PSWG and whose absence results in extra work for companies that want to adopt Portable Stimulus tools without some form of ...

From the earliest days of my career, when designing chips, I have always navigated the interface between hardware and software for semiconductor design in my roles. My initial chip designs included ...

MARGAUX, France — The problem with system-on-chip (SoC) design is that software and hardware designers live in separate worlds, according to Hiroaki Takada, professor of information at Nagoya ...

The Multicore Association has created the Software-Hardware Interface for Multi-Many Core (SHIM) working group. The group will provide a common interface to abstract the hardware properties that ...
